I wonder they chose him for that role and not the guy we drafted who has been on the team now for a few months?

Grier is an acurate pocket-passer and ready to back up if needed.
It would be irresponsible to put Malik in a game at this point of the season and this point of his career......

I think BOB is going to groom Cunningham to be a Deebo Samuel clone.

Anyone notice that Boutte didn't play against the Jets? BB still has his doghouse.

Mafi for Strange against the Cowboys? According to BOB, Strange is struggling with Gap blocking. He's fine for run blocking but doing the inside or outside shift it a real problem. Speed is not an issue. Taking on big interior linemen or big DEs is a struggle. Reportedly, his body just will not add bulk weight or muscle. Supposedly he had a high burning metabolism.

JuJu has a "sore" knee. He had a knee "problem" that wasn't a 'big' problem when BB signed him. So does he have a knee injury? A knee problem? Or does the guy need knee surgery that he just won't get? He's a WR. If he can't run, then he's a liability. 10 catches for 66 yards isn't going to cut it going forward.

He won't get in the habit of toe dragging if he is never allowed to catch.

"Cut" being the key word here.

Wasn’t it Bourne with knee problem? JuJu has sucked so far.

No.
JuJu got the knee issue.

ALERT,,,,,,ALERT........ALERT

For the first time all season, all available Patriots were on the practice field and actually practiced on Wednesday.

According to Perry and Curran, BB and BOB will have all 53 players on the roster to choose from.

NOTE:

Boutte was on the field with the first team yesterday, as was Johnathan Jones at CB.


Don't know if today is a walkthrough or full pads. Team flies to Dallas tomorrow.

Well that's nice, Boutte and Douglas add some dynamics to an otherwise boring offense

 

[cheerupcharlie]

Judon to undergo surgery. Out at least 2 months. Hopefully the rest of the defense can step it up. He is the heart that squad.

JC Jackson once again a Patriot.

JC Jackson once again a Patriot.

We have no depth. I’m happy with this.

We have no depth. I’m happy with this.

Ya. I don't see where we have a choice. A swap of 5th and 6th rounders in 2024 seems like a good deal though supposedly he's getting 12 million this year so I'm not sure about that. Either way, we need him as he already knows and has thrived in this system.

Well, after reading this I'm not so sure. Jackson has an arrest warrant in MA waiting for him. And the reason for the warrant is incredibly fucking stupid.

Ex-Pats CB has new arrest warrant in Massachusetts

Former Patriots cornerback J.C. Jackson, now with the Chargers, reportedly has a new warrant out for his arrest in Massachusetts.

JC Jackson once again a Patriot.

When he was benched, I joked that he would be a Patriot next year and once again perform lights out.

Glad to be wrong...ish, and hoping he goes back to playing to his potential.

Welcome back JC!!

Chase Claypool anyone???

Hey if our receivers can't get any short yardage separation and Mac can't throw the ball any further than Chad Pennington, maybe go with some four TE sets and just throw the ball five yards at a time.

Could Patriots Go To Wideout Bargain Bin After J.C. Jackson Trade?

New England Patriots general manager Bill Belichick went bargain shopping and found a deal for J.C. Jackson. Might he do the same at receiver?

SD has agreed to pay the bulk of his salary.....

TE Jonnu Smith currently has more yards than every Patriots receiver

TE Jonnu Smith is suddenly thriving after leaving the Patriots
